Sacred Parenting with EAST PIM

Posted by on Friday, May 4, 2018 · Leave a Comment 

The EAST Partners in Ministry (PIM) program is designed for wives of seminary students, or whose husbands are ministers or in vocational Christian ministry. PIM seeks to develop wives as they grow in partnership with their husbands and in their own circle of influence.

The above photo is the PIM group who went through the fruitful 6-week course on “Sacred Parenting” with resources from Gary Thomas. The PIM ladies are so blessed by the biblically-based material and group interactions. They learnt how God uses the challenges and struggles in parenting as God’s spiritual formation curriculum to shape each parent to be more like the Heavenly Father.

As believers, there will never a time when our journey towards holiness is done–even or especially as parents. Gary Thomas said, “Parenting puts the spotlight on our weaknesses … We can choose to let sin tear apart our families, or we can use our families to tear apart our sin.”
